Anyone have Tube Warriors?

The first is an italian beat'em' up, slightly nippon style, published by Doublebyte, ECS and AGA versions.
The second I think come out only in AGA.
Someone have them and can post on The Zone? Thanks!

Tube Warriors AGA was posted in The Zone a few weeks ago.
I am reposting it now

jesterrace · 10 June 2002, 19:29

Done.

Boy, you are The Man!
Sorry for reposting, it seems I have totally missed this title a few weeks ago. Maybe it was when my computer crashed for a worm...

Thank you anyway, very kind!

Surf Ninjas is in a ~10MB zip file. I'd have to rar it to split it and then zip the parts again to upload it so it's easier for me to let you get the file directly from my ftp.

ftp://surf:ninjas@burseg.dns2go.com/surfninjas.zip

This link will be valid for 3 days unless I forget to deactivate it

Too big! (The game!)
Too fast! (The reply!)
Too wonderful! (You!)

Three-hard days of full downloading for my poor internet connection...Don't mind... THANKS!!!!

No problem. I just saw someone downloading and didn't think it was you so I kicked two of his (your) three active connections in order to gain some bandwidth then I realized it was you. Ummm.... please reconnect

jesterrace · 11 June 2002, 02:02

Can I get Surf Ninjas too?

andreas · 11 June 2002, 03:30

Sorry, Burseg!
I started as soon as I replied to your post, with a multi-download session with Getright (defragmented).
Then, just to test the speed of connection, I've broken the download because it was too late!!!
I got up very soon in the morning (6 o'clock), and I was really too tired!
It seems this game is interesting for other guys, too...

LOL sorry andreas

I thought they were connections from the same ip. I never kick anyone completely whomever he is.

You don't have to test the speed, from now on my isp went crazy and will provide only 2kb per second upload bandwidth which is worse than 56k. If you guys haven't finished downloading it will be harder from now on, but I won't turn the ftp offline until you all finish downloading. After that, any accounts on my ftp wil be deleted, my http and ftp servers will be shut down and I won't be able to upload anything to the zone for a very long time

I'm in search of a country to migrate to. :kill

I tried to download it, as I couldn't find it in my Tosec set, but I got a NameLookupError. It is not a problem as I came to find the game in a misc area in my ever to be sorted HD.

Oh, feel free to consider Brazil on your list! Not the best place to live, but has its good points.

the wolf · 13 June 2002, 13:25

Yep, I finished the download, and it was all ok, for me.
I'll try the game in these days...
Only a question: does it exist on floppies or it came only on CD?
Thank you.

What does this mean in particular?
That your ISP is bankrupt?
Or would you have to pay too much money if you wanted more than 2 kb/sec?

P.S.: Congratulations Turkey for reaching the Round of 16! :thumbs_up
P.P.S. Foreigners always say "eighth final", but I know that no one of the native speakers would ever use this term

It is the only isp that gives cable service at my area. This isp is directly under control of Turkish Telecom which is directly under control of the government. This means they have no rival. There a lots of good dial up isps but they are not permitted to give cable service. When they do, everything will change and I'm waiting for this to happen.

My contract was based on what I'm having today. 8/2k, but they used to provide 32/8k and then decreased it to 24/8k. The reason is simple, they had to advertise for their service and since they didn't have much customers they could provide 32k per second with a 8k contract BUT I'm paying ~50$ for this service, even 32k is hardly worth it. Since they were the only isp, they could force people to sign a contract that is based on 8k! There are higher bandwidths available but I have to pay let's say four times more if I decide to sign for 16k and 32k is four times more expensive that the 16k. I can't state the exact price here for they don't advertise for anyting other than their default service on their website for it's meaninglessly expensive anyway. I'll wait for a few days, if people decide against this and cancel their contracts, my isp may have to step back. But practically, my isp cannot pay for additional bandwidth and as a business, they are failing if not going bankrupt at the moment.

Thanks andreas for your comment on the cup. I was surprised when I first realized that we are still surviving. I'm hoping to be shocked by winning the cup.
